HC Deb 26 June 1919 vol 117 c351W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if the Board does not agree to follow the American example and abolish the expensive full dress uniform of naval officers altogether, whether he can procure its abolition for the lieutenant and sub-lieutenant ranks and so help to prevent officers being in debt early in their careers?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The question of naval officers' uniform after the War is under consideration by the Admiralty.
